Chapter 199 Lessons from the past

Under the palace lamp, the sight of the bedroom was a little dim. A figure sat alone in front of the table and heard the sound. He looked up. On the purple and gold crown of his hair, the jewels emitted a circle of silver light.

The two looked at each other. He turned his back to the light and could not see the expression on his face clearly, but when he looked up, Chu Ruoxi felt a sense of evil coming to her face. She was confused and instinctively seemed to escape!

"You're back!"

Yang Yiping seemed to guess what she was thinking. Before she could turn around, she was directly called up by him, "It's windy outside. Let's get into the house!"

"You...you..." Chu Ruoxi gave up the idea of running away. The whole palace was his. Where did he go?" Your Highness, why are you here... me so late?"

"Is it very late? How time flies. Don't you feel that it's almost dawn?" Yang Yiping looked at the window carelessly. Although the window was closed and he could not see the outside, he seemed to suddenly wake up, "Close the door! I asked someone to help you simmer the stove.

Chu Ruoxi hesitated for a moment, closed the door as he ordered, and thanked him. He came forward to take over the stove. During the hand meeting, his hand covered her hand. "Why is it so cold? It's the twelfth month of winter. I don't know how many clothes I have to wear when I go out. I hurt myself. I'm at a loss."

His hands are as warm and comfortable as the stove, and his words are more warm, but he will eventually become the hostile side of Chu Ruoxi.

Looking at the increasingly mature and stable face in front of her, the delicate warmth in her eyes looked at herself softly, making her a little confused.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, his eyes were a little red, and there was a trace of anxiety in his eyes.

"Ruoxi, what's the matter? Is it my words... it's heavier."

Chu Ruoxi shook his head, his eyes drooped, and couldn't look at him anymore. "Your Highness, you have been working very hard these days. You should have a good rest. Why... How can you stay in Qingyao Palace without letting a slave serve you? What should you do if something happens?"

"It doesn't matter. I can't accompany you these days. When I'm free, I just want to see you. I'm relieved to see you."

Yang Yiping stroked her hair lovingly and said helplessly, "It's reasonable for you to be sad after the death of your mother, but you can't be so capricious. He also said that I don't bring a slave. How can I rest assured that you walk alone in the huge palace?"

Chu Ruoxi was shocked. Did he already know that he had seen Liang Ziyang?

She used the queen's signboard to show her sadness and said tentatively, "Ruoxi has lost her mother since she was a child. The queen did not hesitate to condescend. She treated Ruoxi like her own daughter and took care of her many times, but she didn't expect that God was too cruel. The queen went like this. I... I felt uncomfortable in my heart and just wanted to be quiet and feel free in the royal garden. After a while, I didn't want to be tired, so I waited. I don't know if my Highness has anything urgent to find Ruoxi. Although the palace is big, it is not difficult to summon me back..."

"Ruoxi! The dead are dead, and the living should be put down. When I come here today, I can't rest assured. Seeing that you are not in the Qingyao Palace, I guess you are also going to mourn your mother. How can I go against your filial piety, so I didn't send anyone to look for it. Just wait for you here to come back.

Yang Yiping held her in his arms and put his chin on her forehead. He was heartbroken: "However, the matter of the mother has passed. You must not be as stupid as today. When you are unhappy, you can come to Zhengde Hall to me. I will accompany you and protect you. "

I don't know how true and fake his words were, but his arms were really strong and warm. Chu Ruoxi lay on his chest, and the "dongdong" heartbeat from his chest and heard it really.

She couldn't help pressing her hand on his heart, but she couldn't suppress her tears!

Yang Yiping is ambitious and has a universe in his heart. If he ascends the throne, it is difficult to guarantee that he is not an emperor for thousands of years. However, for the sake of Daqi, will his sword pierce his heart sooner or later?

"What's wrong? Ruoxi, did you...do you cry? Yang Yiping's fingers were wet by her tears. He quickly raised her chin and looked down at her eyes: "Has someone bullied you, or is your heart knot gone?"

Chu Ruoxi couldn't be compared with him like this anymore. His wet eyelashes flashed and tears fell more fiercely, but he had an idea in his heart, so he changed the topic first and covered up his gaffe.

"Your Highness, I... want to know one thing!"

She could feel Yang Yiping's fingers tremble slightly. He froze for a moment before sighing: "Ruoxi, some things will pass. Let's not pay attention to it anymore, okay?"

"Has your Highness rejected me before I said it?" Chu Ruoxi raised her head with a self-deprecating bitter smile on her face, "Is there something difficult for Your Highness to say?"

Yang Yiping didn't say anything. He looked into Chu Ruoxi's eyes and felt helpless and worried.

Chu Ruoxi waited for a while and couldn't wait for Yang Yiping's response. Thinking of Liang Ziyang's words, her heart gradually became cold: Yang Yiping was the real murderer of the queen, but he would not tell himself what had happened. In the final analysis, what Yang Yiping did was for his own interests, and he was rooted in his eyes. It's nothing.

"How did the Queen die?" He didn't say that Chu Ruoxi simply went straight into it and was about to marry him and become the daughter-in-law of the Yang family. If Yang Yiping was not Yang Zicheng's son, she might still consider it, but his identity was there and could not be changed.

It is a good way for Chu Ruoxi to confuse his country, become his queen, confuse his harem, and affect the previous dynasty, but the hatred for Yang Zicheng in her heart can't let her accept this identity calmly. Therefore, she hopes to anger Yang Yiping and let him play Yongle Emperor in anger and postpone two About the marriage of the National People's Congress.

"Ruoxi!" Yang Yiping's tone was a little cold, and he didn't seem to want her to talk about this. "My mother's first seven days have just passed, and my father has issued an order to be buried in the imperial mausoleum. Everything is over. How can you provoke the story of my mother's death again?"

In order to take care of the face of the heavenly family, Emperor Yongle only told Chu Yuanshan that the Empress had an accident and died from Lutai, and told the world that the Empress had a sudden illness and died.

As soon as the edict was issued, the development of the situation exceeded Yang Yiping's imagination. There were rumors that the queen was killed. What's more, there were private rumors that in order to cut off the power of the Chu family, coupled with the dissatisfaction with the queen's domining in the palace for so many years, the emperor sent the queen back to the west!

Yang Yiping listened to her words and rarely became fierce to her, which made Chu Ruoxi a little surprised. The more so, the more it proved that he had a ghost in his heart, and if he refused to tell himself the truth, then his many promises and vows in the past could not be taken seriously.

"Your Highness, the Empress is my aunt, and even the mother of Zhou. In the past, there were no twenty slaves served around her. Not to mention falling down from the Lutai, even a sprained foot is impossible. How can I believe that it is gone? How can I accept it?"

After Chu Ruoxi finished speaking, he bit his lower lip, as if he was holding the dissatisfaction that was about to break out in his heart. He stared at Yang Yiping's eyes and looked at him firmly and could not ignore without blinking.

Yang Yiping was really a little annoyed. His breath spit on her face and suppressed his temper and said, "Fools are ignorant and fooled. You are a lady. You have read the book of sages, and you are so superficial. Let't say that you put aside your mother first and then the mother of the State of Zhou, but the father has been true feelings for your mother for so many years. In the past, you have even said heavy words. I can't bear to say that who can compare the favor of the mother in the harem? May I ask, how did my father hurt her?"

Yongle Emperor won't, what about you?

Chu Ruoxi loosened her lower lip, and her ruddy lips in the past were bitten and turned into purple. Yang Yiping's scolding did not make her give in. She shook her head with a wry smile: "I just want to ask Your Highness, was your Highness present when something happened?"

Yang Yiping's eyebrows were slightly raised, and his eyes became more unfathomable. Chu Ruoxi only felt that his shoulders were tight. Yang Yiping's hands increased his strength, and his voice was a little low: "Ruoxi, are you doubting me?"

"Your Highness, tell me!"

The room was silent, and the wind outside the window became stronger and louder, like the whimper of a fierce beast.

"I'm here!"

For a long time, the two words of low and hoarseness broke the dead silence, like a thunder on the ground, which made Chu Ruoxi's body tremble. Her face showed a look that only she could understand. She looked at Yang Yiping with complicated eyes.

Yang Yiping actually said that he was "in", so he could only explain to himself what had happened at that time. Even if he compiled a lie, he admitted that the Empress was there when she died, so he could not get rid of the Queen's death.

"Your Highness... tell me why you did this?" Chu Ruoxi's body trembled slightly because the wall piled up in her heart became extremely unstable in front of Yang Yi's plane and was in danger of collapse at any time.

"I didn't! Ruoxi, how can you believe that the death of the Empress is really an accident. My father and I have no intention of harming her!" Yang Yiping gently held her face and didn't let her lean to one side.

Chu Ruoxi stretched out her hand to pull her hand and sarcastically said, "Your Highness, I also want to believe that it was an accident, but with the presence of the emperor and the prince, so many slaves dare not neglect the empress even if they eat the ambition leopard, let alone talk about falling down. What do you make me do? Ann!"

"Believe it or not, after my father didn't harm my mother, I won't do such a bad thing. As for you say that you can't feel at ease. With me, I will protect you. Even if you fall down, I will fall under your body before landing!"

Yang Yiping said the oath in front of her, as if it were as easy as drinking tea, and it was getting easier and smoother.

Chu Ruoxi smiled sadly and looked at Yang Yiping's eyes full of sadness: "I'm afraid of things in my heart. Your Highness can't understand that the Empress is the lesson of my previous car. I am about to enter the palace to serve Your Highness. If I can't understand why the empress who has served the emperor so many years have died tragically in front of the emperor, how dare I Make sure that you won't be the second dead queen!"
